Spain MEP Irene Montero: “Send your son, Donald Trump — If you want war, send your own people to the front line. We in Spain want our children, our daughters, & our loved ones at home, safe. We don’t want war — those who want war should send their own children”
A new report from the Economic and Social Research Institute has found that Ireland is significantly behind, and unlikely to meet, the targets set out in the Climate Action Plan for decarbonising residential heat
Big muscly dog: landlord when they're kicking you out small dog in tears: landlords when asked for the deposit back
here we go again
As rents skyrocket, & evictions soar, make sure you remember that Independent Ireland & Independent TDs literally copy-pasted 'amendments' from the landlord lobby for the Residential Tenancies Bill to make it even more pro-landlord!
Landlord Dáil enacts pro-landlord legislation.

We are governed by spineless and moral-free cowards.

Our Press Release in the Galway City Tribune today: Climate-proofing of Roads a Priority.
"Once again, ordinary taxpayers will be the ones footing the bill for Government inaction. Reinforcing our roads now is far cheaper than repairing climate related collapse later - and far safer."
For anyone who would like the clip (including George).

Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either
When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them

Landlord firm that issued 36 eviction notices in one estate has been involved in multiple RTB disputes Dozens of tenants affected by Patchflow Ltd’s order ahead of new rent rules coming into effect
Huh, almost as if interacting with the RTB is no form of deterrent
Feel bad for our Government cause this new war will probably make the Occupied Territories Bill EVEN MORE complex to pass, & they were just about to pass it! I even saw Micheál Martin running into Leinster House last week, holding the OTB, on his way to pass it, & then the bloody war broke out
Unions and workplaces – signs of a new turn to action?
Deirdre Cronin discusses the signs of some long overdue green shoots in the trade union movement.
The Covalen strike in Sandyford, south Dublin last month was diverse, loud and confident. Communication Workers Union (CWU) members who are content
Became a victim of this.
The Trump regime has abandoned the constitution:
- declared war without Congressional authorization
- ignoring multiple court orders
- impounding Congressional authorized funds
- ignoring the freedom of speech and assembly
It’s a lawless regime that has no legitimacy.

Amazing how constantly having to call meetings like this, begging them not to jack up the prices of fuel, food, homes, etc etc, never seems to make them question whether the laws are robust enough in the first place
Despite the hot air from government about protecting children, they've voted down our Bill to turn off the toxic algorithms.
These algorithms push toxic content promoting eating disorders, self harm, misogyny and hate.
Big Tech profits should not come before children's health.
Hosting the Ireland v Israel match in the Aviva is a serious and shameful mistake.
Previous fixtures involving Israeli teams have seen off-duty soldiers and supporters engage in intimidation, openly chanting genocidal threats, and attacks on local communities simply for displaying Palestinian flags
Protesters from the Tintéain, Banú and other Gaeltacht housing campaign groups took part in a rally outside Leinster House this afternoon to highlight concerns about the growing housing crisis in the Gaeltacht

Key dates:

Deadline for submissions on the rezoning of Citywest (and others) is 13 March.
War is a racket.
This government refused to take meaningful actions for the last 5 years to stop the price gouging and profiteering from private companies, and it seems they're not planning to start now.
We should have price controls for essentials like energy and heating.

The government intends to oppose our bill tomorrow.
This is the most craven of actions by the most craven of Governments, and in the debate tomorrow we will call them out for this unforgivable failure to protect the public.
These algorithms are driving an epidemic of mental health problems.
Thursday! Allianz House, Merrion Road, 12pm. UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese issued a report in July 2025 which identified Allianz as one of the corporations profiting from the Israeli economy of illegal occupation, apartheid, and now genocide. The GAA must #DropAllianz #FreePalestine

We'll be voting on this on Wednesday.
We must fight the problem at it's source - we need turn off these toxic algorithms.
We need to pass the "Online Safety (Recommender Algorithms) Bill 2025".
Nobody should be exposed to this toxic content, but especially children.
#StopTheToxicAlgorithms
In 2003, we warned against the catastrophic consequences of US-led regime change in Iraq.
We were ignored — and hundreds of thousands of people lost their lives.
Political leaders should learn the lessons of history, and stand up for international law, sovereignty and peace.
While we realise its very short notice, its important that even a small gathering is made to send a message that in Galway we do not support the actions of the US and Israeli governments. Galway demo to coincide with demos at the same time across Ireland including Dublin, Belfast and Derry.
Graphic for protest announcement. Monday 2 March 6pm. Eyre Square, Galway.
Anti-war demo tomorrow at 6pm to demand an end to the US-Israeli bombing of Iran and calling on the Irish government to end its support for US military actions.

We cannot let this kind of abuse stand in Ireland.
